In this post I have explained how to increase or extend the range of an ordinary infra red or IR remote control through a 433MHz RF remote control system. IR Range Extender Concept The idea of this circuit is to feed the IR data from an IR transmitter into the transmitter input of an RF […]
Newly Updated Circuit Projects:
Simple TV Transmitter Circuit (Audio and Video Combined)
The TV transmitter circuit presented in this post incorporates the European standard FM frequency for audio and Video up-links. Referring to the circuit below, Q1 is configured as a preamplifier for amplifying the audio input to be modulated. Circuit Description Q2 is fundamentally responsible for conducting a couple of important functions: It amplifies the carrier frequency […]
Electronic Ballast Circuit for UV Germicidal Lamps
In this post I have explained the construction of a DC UV germicidal lamp ballast circuit which can be used for driving any standard 20 watt UV lamp through a 12 V DC source. Although, the proposed ballast design was originally meant for illuminating a regular 20 watt fluorescent tube light, this can be also […]
20 Watt Fluorescent Tube Light Circuit with 12V Battery Operation
This simple 20 watt home tube light circuit will work with any 12V battery and uses very few components yet is able to produce a reasonable amount of white light. The components used are very common and can be easily procured from the local electronic retailer. The idea is simple, the secondary winding of Tr1 […]
Stepper Motor Driver Circuit using IC 555
In this project we are going learn how to make a simple unipolar stepper motor driver circuit using 555 timer IC. Apart from 555 timer we also need IC CD 4017 which is a decade counter IC. By Ankit Negi Any unipolar motor can be connected to this circuit for performing specific task, though you […]
Potato Battery Circuit – Electricity from Vegetables and Fruits
In this article I have explained how vegetables can be used for making an organic battery, through an example of a practical potato battery experiment. Alessandro Volta was probably the first man to devise the method and idea of generating electricity from electrolytic solutions. According to his concept, two dissimilar metals when brought in contact […]
